Paladins losing certain special abilities

[Storm Rider]

I am not sure if this a result of a mod change, a bug in one of the mods, a bug in the game or just something that is supposed to happen. I noticed recently that my Paladin's abilities to Draw Upon Holy Might, Slow Poison and Cure Light Wounds have vanished. The only things left are Detect Evil, Protection From Evil and the new Slayer Change. It may have happened earlier but I first noticed it when I entered the Asylum (Spellhold). Around that time my Paladin gained a level and I had the ability to learn low level Priest spells. I can now memorise all Level 1 spells (and have Cure Light Wounds from there) but I have lost those that were automatically given to my character in the first place.

 

Can anybody shed any light on this? I could put them back with Shadowkeeper I think, but I prefer not to hack the game if I can help it.

 

Regards.

Draw Upon Holy Might, Slow Poison and Cure Light Wounds aren't paladin abilities, they're Bhaalspawn abilities. You lost them when Irenicus drained your soul.

[Gorilym]

The loss of those abilities is part of the vanilla game and intentional. They are Bhaalspawn powers, and thus they are lost at the same time as your soul is lost / stolen. You won't get them back (unless you cheat).

 

edit: SimDing0 beat me to the post.

You know, it would make sense if you got them back after defeating Irenicus and regaining your soul at the end of SoA. But by the time you get to ToB, you'd hardly notice.

I agree that it'd make sense. However, seeing as the bhaalspawn powers added by Ascension are much more useful, it's no big deal IMHO.

Ah, I didn't know that they were Bhaalspawn abilities. I always thought they were Paladin abilities, similar to the Lay On Hands ability (which my Undead Hunter doesn't have). I always thought Draw Upon Holy Might was one especially, particularly as a Cleric can have that spell.

When your paladin gets to a high enough level, they'll have access to it again, so hang in there.
